I'm not a slot car guy, but I am a nerd that occasionally likes Star Wars references. This felt like a bargain that I needed.

I got a little pee pee Mainly cause I wanted the documentation to see what they were. As suspected, they are a capacitor.

Coincidence that these two showed up on the same day. At first glance, they may seem similar, but they are absolutely nothing alike! The built car may have instantly become my most favorite RC I own.

I gots me sum goodies today too. Some NOS out of package factory tires for my HPI RS4MT and a pair of cheapo Amazon servos, one for the RS4MT and one for my up-n-coming OG Blackfoot refurbishment. This one is my first hobby grade, got it for Christmas when I was probably 14. Beat the snot out of it and just got it back from my brother a few months ago.

Here are few things I’ve received the past week..

Bolink Jrx2 lowering kit and body mount kit..I will be opening and detailing these in a future thread.


This white JCar front Jrx2 bumper which I’ve never seen before.. and a cool Dan’s battery pack pal.

Mom's almond roca. RC by way of "really crunchy".

Two thumbs up for a cool car and for reminding me of one of my favorite RCCA ads:

What is the built RC, under the bodywork?

Yep, Parma didn't do a lot of great things RC IMO, but advertising was one thing they did very well! Their slot car stuff is great, and the Hemi engine itself is extremely nice!

Homemade chassis and some POS transmission.

Ooooo.... I have a thing for non-standard builds!

The photo is crummy, but the item is awesome

I'm so glad I was able to get John to make these. They should be a game changer for anyone that hates drilling holes and likes to put a lot of power down

Add "doesn't like cleaning", and I'm there!

My first "wireless" RC Car 1986. Mine was broke pretty bad from "bashing", not sure what ever happened to it in the end.
got this with the box for a good price. Electronics are sketchy, might upgrade it because I can.

I had a Honda 3 wheeler before this, but I can't exactly remember which one.

That's what I had, a white Turbo Panther. It was a great little car
